Molecular Verification of New World Mansonella perstans Parasitemias

Molecular Verification of New World Mansonella perstans Parasitemias

We obtained ribosomal and mitochondrial DNA sequences from residents of Amazonas state, Brazil, with Mansonella parasitemias. Phylogenetic analysis of these sequences confirm that M. ozzardi and M. perstans parasites occur in sympatry and reveal the close relationship between M. perstans in Africa a...
